Do military planes in P3D v4x shoot ammo and missiles?

No, just spend money on a bunch of DCS aircraft that are part of a giant rolling open beta which never ends. I agree that DCS is a much better option than P3d4 overall, if one's objective to to just fly military aircraft. But TacPack  is a very good option for someone that enjoys flying military aircraft and missions within a simulator that has proper weather and realistic scenery. As an example, the DCS F/A-18C has been in early access mode for ages and it still isn't anywhere as complete as the equivalent VRS TacPack version. 

Lol, really..? Ok...

You don’t... you get a full combat simulator, with missions and other planes...

Would you happen to know if I can use maps purchased directly from DCS (eg. Persion Gulf) with the Steam version of the plane (eg. A-10c or A-10a)?  Thanks.

Hardware: i7-8700k, GTX 1070-ti, 32GB ram, NVMe/SSD drives with lots of free space.
Software: latest Windows 10 Pro, P3Dv4.5+, FSX Steam, and lots of addons (100+ mostly Orbx stuff).

I'm not 100% which way but I believe you could go from one to the other once. you'd have to check on their website.

I am glad that I was of service.  Enjoy, and be safe out there.

I am really into DCS these days (uninstalled P3D waiting for v5) - DCS works amazing in VR.

Military planes in P3D v4x don't come equipped to shoot ammo or missiles as part of the base game.

I have all their versions of the A-10, but I was looking for the A-4 specifically. Thanks for the suggestion.

There is an excellent freeware A-4 available for DCSW.
